A bit bulky and unsightly, so just buy the smaller ones...Feb 11, 2009
By Shawn Brown
In spite of the retailer claiming that my smaller triggers from previous SkyLink alarm would NOT work, they did!! But my newer alarm came with these triggers (2). I find them a bit bulky and unsightly so I prefer the smaller ones with a smaller battery.
About the best thing about THIS trigger is that you KNOW if it is not in its closed position by the little red light. If the light comes on, it is not fully closed and alarm will not arm this particular trigger.

The sticker is terrible but a good add-onJun 09, 2009
By Tonupboy

I installed the SC-1000 and purchased a few of these add-ons. It does the job picking up the signal quiet nicely and easy install. I suggest you stock up on the batteries because you dont want these to fail in time of need so test them once in a while using the chime mode. Anyway, my main gripe is the I had these on my window and when it got warm, the double sided tape started unsticking I found a couple of these dangling from a couple of my windows when the sun was beating on it...I basically had to move it around - make the sun heat doesnt get to it or else the tape undoes itself.
Update: Screwed them instead, but if your're not willing to ruing your panels, they do sell double sided tape with better adhesive and will stay on. As for the alarm, I still use it and its great.

Works excellent, a bit unsightlyNov 26, 2009
By voodoo
The Window/Door sensors are not the most attractive pieces of hardware you've ever seen. The silver terminals on the magnet are exposed instead of hidden within a housing. They do work very well though, which is the most important feature they could have.
Be aware that in most of the product photos they do not show you the wire that runs from the "wireless" unit to the magnets, but there is one. It's only wireless back to the main control panel. With some planning you could probably install this with the wire hidden, like in new construction. For those of us with existing door and window frames however it will be hard to completely hide the wire.
Also keep in mind that if you keep your windows locked, an intruder will most likely be breaking your window, not just sliding it open. I chose to use these units on my doors and am looking into the vibration sensors for the windows instead, but they might work for your application.
I attached a few photos at the top of the page, and you can see where I needed to modify my wooden door trim to get the sensors to sit flat. I used a Dremel to do this, and it wasn't hard but there was not another way for me to mount these and get them to work without modifying the trim around the door frame.
Overall they do work very well and I can accept the aesthetics of them for the price I paid.

 Easy to install and useSep 09, 2009
By Unoman

I bought this product about a year ago now and it has been working flawlessly since then. The unit is very easy to install - follow the directions that come with it - it took me about one hour to install the three door sensors (I bought an extra one) and the one motion sensor. I usually use the remote unit to arm / disarm the unit and even after a year of use the batteries do not need replacement.
I have yet to install the telephone piece of the kit - the problem I face is that my house has multiple telephone lines and I need to locate the primary one. After a lot of procrastination, I finally decided to get a professional to do this piece of the work. If you have a simple telephone setup this should not be a problem either. I've tested the system randomly during this past year and it has never failed yet. I have had no false alarms of it going off when it should not and have taken long trips with at least some peace of mind. I would certainly recommend this as a very good alternative to all of those expensive alarm systems - and managed to get a 15% reduction in my insurance premium to boot!!

 Works well, but UGLYFeb 25, 2009
By Jim
This thing works well, but stands out like a sore thumb. It's big, bulky, and archaic. They could have made it much more compact and streamlined, like other company's sensors are. This has a separate old style wired magnet sensor, and the wire runs to the transmitter. So you have to mount three pieces, instead of two.
